Kent clinics equine behavior and language, raises horses, tends cattle, is proficient with a six-shooter, is handy with a rope, and can seriously crack a bullwhip. That’s a ripe background for a mud-on-the-spurs and blood-in-the-dust Western. Librarian note: Multiple authors with the same name in the GR database; this author is entered with 2 spaces.
